Dr. Holló Ferenc szerk.: Parasitologia Hungarica 3. (Budapest, 1970)

Material and methods Collections of lice preserved in the Zoological Department of the Hungarian Natural History Museum, Budapest, represented the starting point for my research. These consist of sucking lice (

Anoplura

) collected by the scientific staff of the Museum in 1956-1965 from 14 species of mammals, mainly rodents, and of the Phthiraptera collected by the author himself in 1969 from 5 species of mammals, mainly domestic ones. Materials preserved from past years have also been used; these are specified in the paper under the heading „previous records in Hungary"

. The method of collecting the parasites consisted of combing the hosts and picking out the discovered specimens. Anoplura Haematopinidae Enderlein, 1904 Haematopinus apri Goureau A parasite of the wild boar (Sus scrofa 1.), found in the European region, among others, in Czechoslovakia (also in Southern Slovakia - SMETANA, 1965), in Germany (STUBBE, 1966) and Poland (WEGNER, 1966); in the Mediterranean region recorded from Bulgaria (TOULESHKOV, 1957). In Hungary, it was found on the wild boar by KOHAUT (1897) and DUDICH (1923). New records from Sus scrofa L.: 2 o* leg. A. KÖTÉL 27 XI, 1958, Ugod (Comitat Veszprém); 3 S 11 o_ 29 n leg. I.
